Actually there's quite a lot of doubt about it!

Depending on which charts you use, the track and intensity of the low varies a great deal. It ranges from a powerful low near iceland sending good long period waves at the UK for the weekend, through to a very weak depression passing too far north to be of any use.

Personally Im keeping my fingers crossed for the former, and going with your forecast, but I'll wait and see for a couple more days yet before getting too excited.

Of all the forecasts, this is the one I trust most. Lets go with that. Bring on the hula hula girls :lol:

Is it finished yet kitey, is it??????

Do I wanna see a photo... or do I want to wait and see.....? Oh, the indecision... the suspense...

Hopefully I can fill this thread up after the weekend with pictures of me and my new board (....wobbling about ineffectually on a mushy broken wave) :lol:

This is really building up the suspense - not only is there 'ooh ooh ooh! New board!' but now there's 'ooh ooh ooh! What colour is it really?' :wink:

Lovely hot coat kitey, but just wait until you take a holesaw to it! :twisted:

assuming thats how you intend on drilling out the holes for the leash and fin plugs!

by **kitesurfer** » Tue Mar 20, 2007 9:37 pm

Only a few more days to go!!!

...But Kitey... what are the 'uber finishing touches, but you'll have to wait and see' that you mentioned last night?

Kitey has added more pink!!!!, no only joking.

Seriously, I have seen the board in the flesh and the secret mods which have made a very sweet board even sweeter.

The p155 takers here will eat thier hats when they see it for real.
